Andreas, I'm shooting in the dark here, but I also suggest you update your motherboard system's BIOS to the latest avaialble release. Often CPU errata is included in the BIOS code, which should increase stability. This is specially useful in Opteron and multi-cpu systems See: http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=mozclient&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&q=opteron+errata FC _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list vbox-users@virtualbox.org http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
